Two Find Freedom

Freedom for Two

A very refined Chinese lady stands holding a vase. Behind her, two birds have found freedom from their cage. This while a third bird hopes for his chance.

The background of the actual painting has a bit more of a light green hue than you might be seeing on your computer monitor.

About the artist...

This work is by Qian Li-Qun (who also paints under the pen name Yian Ren). He was born in 1954 and started his career as an artist in 1978. He lives in Xin Long which is a small town in Hebei Province in Northern China.

About the artwork...

This style of Chinese art combines the elements of abstract and modern art, while maintaining a flair of folk art as well.
Certainly this style is in a category all of its own.

Material used in this work is known as "shui fen" in Chinese (paint powder and water - similar to gouache).

Because this is a form of Asian modern art, we did not have it mounted with a silk border (as most of our traditional artwork is). Instead, it is on the raw, and rather lightweight paper. This keeps your cost down, and allows you to decide how you want to frame your modern Asian art.
